The Secui or Szeklers (Székely, Romanian: Secui, German: Szekler) ( 'sék-ei' in pronunciation ) are an ethnic group mostly living in Transylvania in Romania, with a significant population also living in Vojvodina, Serbia and Montenegro. Most of the world's Székely population live in Romania and they are tightly concentrated in an area known as Székelyföld (Szekler Land). Based on the latest Romanian statistics, approximately 850,000 consider themselves Székely, and mainly live in the counties of Harghita, Covasna and parts of Mures. Székelys hence accounting for an important part of the Hungarian minority in Romania.

The Székely are of uncertain origins, subject to much debate among themselves and among scholars. A widespread theory asserts that they descend from the warrior tribe lands, on which the Magyars soon settled, along frontier mountains to defend against invasions from Tatars and other menacing people from the east. Székely people adhere proudly to their Secui identity.
